Will any companies in Atlanta hire felons?

My husband is going through the same exact thing. We live in Clayton County. He is 34 with a felony record. He is currently employed, however, it’s for an employer than only pay on a commission base. He is also considered an independent contractor. The pay barely pays our utility bills. I wish I could offer some insight, however, it seems sort of washing dishes or being at a car wash, Atlanta is really a hopeless place for a good man with a mistake in his past to start fresh. Although, the Army national guard and the regular Army will accept felons (of certain crimes). We arecurrently searching daily to find new opportunities, if we happen to find something, I will definitely post it for you. I wish you the best.

Hi Jem2000, I am in the same boat as your husband. I am an IT Professional. I am very good at what I do but once a company finds out that I have a criminal record it is all over. I have had offers recended due to that. I do not know what to do. I will pray for you and your husband.
